What advice would you give to struggling or starving artists just starting out?

Never give up. There will be many disappointments and setbacks, but if you enjoy what you’re doing and believe in yourself, there will be people who respond to your work. The market is vast enough that no matter what you create, you can find your audience. Not everyone will connect with your art—some people will pass by without a glance while others will be so excited they want everything you’ve made. That’s normal. Focus on getting your quality work in front of more people, spreading the word, and staying consistent. The key is persistence combined with smart marketing that helps the right collectors discover you.
